Prem Ratan Dhan Payo now to release with 2 hrs 50 mins runtime

After a long discussion & arguments Sooraj Barjatya has finally agreed to cut some of the precious scenes from his film Prem Ratan Dhan Payo. The film starring Salman Khan & Sonam Kapoor in lead roles will now release with runtime of 2 hours & 50 minutes.

Sources close to the project revealed that, now the film's length is down by 30 minutes from original 3 hours 20 minutes. Still, the film is 7 minutes more than Salman's previous release Bajrangi Bhaijaan which was 2 hours 43 minutes long.

Trade expert Atul Mohan thinks the length of the film to be no problem at all. "Everybody wants more and more of Salman Khan. Such is his magic and power. Coming with Sooraj Barjatya after a long time the magic is bound to cast its potent spell on the box office."

But, many felt that Ajay Devgan's Drishyam would have performed much better if it had not been nearly 3 hours in length. On other hand, Audience will not have problem with runtime! Actually who the hell cares about runtime if it's a Salman Khan's film!

Atul also feels family drama need to take their time to make their point. "A larger than life family drama can never be enjoyed within a smaller time-frame. Family movies are made in very very less numbers now. They bring that much-needed change from our selfie-styled living in present times."
